this will be a introduction to the audiences before
they play the game. hopefully this will be presented
on a tv screen or some sort to present.

Testing 01

Today has been a good day for all. We finally hooked a projector up to Max/MSP and saw what it could do. Unfortunately the ceiling in our room isn't high enough for the projector to project a large enough area, so the trails weren't directly behind the cars, but we'll sort this out tomorrow.

With the tracking, i'm thinking moving away from LEDs, as they don't remain really stay at an even brightness, and the batteries they use cost many English pounds. Instead i suggested using florescent post-it notes on the cars, and have a UV (black) light shinning onto the cars. This would highlight the cars with out over powering the projected trails, and also illuminate the cars hub caps. Beautiful stuff!



To save us using 8 batteries per car in each controller, Mr. Robert Strode hooked the controls up to a power pak that pumps out 12volts. Works a treat, and from here we can add a switch to cut the power when the a car collides with a trail.
